It's bizarre. Apparently Trump and Trumpers want to stop all federal government sponsorship of scientific and medical research, the innovative stuff that catapulted the US to world leaders and bring back 50's style manufacturing. Barbie dolls instead of a cure for cancer. The lack of foresight is mind boggling.So America is giving up funding life saving medical research? Giving up on having some of the world's top scientists working on stuff that will benefit your country?
You know who doesn't bother with that kind of thing? Shithole countries.
That is money better spent by the NIH to do its own research
Of the two, manufacturing Barbie dolls is the only thing that has produced tangible results. There is no cure for cancer. The best humanity can do is improve on treatment to buy time.Barbie dolls instead of a cure for cancer.
Dubious value? What do you think those 161 Nobel Prizes are for...basket weaving research?That is money better spent by the NIH to do its own research rather than lavishing a private institution with taxpayer dollars to fund research of dubious value.
Cancer patients are cured every day of the week.There is no cure for cancer.
Can you itemize which of those things was done with taxpayer funded grants and which with money from Harvard’s endowment or annual revenue? If it’s all valuable then why doesn’t big Benjamins Harvard pay for all of it? And, yes, Harvard gives out mock Nobel prizes for ridiculous research.Dubious value?

You didn't read the list of medical breakthroughs I linked to. You personally benefit from some of them.
Trump doesn't care if it doesn't affect him.It's bizarre.

No they aren’t. Cancer patients are bought time with remission every day of the week but it is not cured. There is an inevitable resurgence of the cancer, only this time highly resistant to treatment.Cancer patients are cured every day of the week.
You have zero idea what you're talking about.No they aren’t. Cancer patients are bought time with remission every day of the week but it is not cured. There is an inevitable resurgence of the cancer, only this time highly resistant to treatment.
Man are you seriously uninformed.....No they aren’t. Cancer patients are bought time with remission every day of the week but it is not cured. There is an inevitable resurgence of the cancer, only this time highly resistant to treatment.
Yes, you didn’t know that Harvard gives out satirical prizes called the IG Nobel? It’s their equivalent of the Razzies. Here are some fun examples of the winners:What????
Do you know what you just typed?
This is always the case.You have zero idea what you're talking about.
Look, we're talking about Harvard and the Trump administration going after them because of their refusal to do anything about students that support Hamas. Because it's Trump that's going after them they could be researching the benefits of murdering gays and blacks and the left wing would STILL support Harvard because Trump. That's just the way our nation is these days.It’s right to question why a private institution with a $53 billion endowment and $6.5 billion in annual revenue needs a dime from the Federal government for research. That is money better spent by the NIH to do its own research rather than lavishing a private institution with taxpayer dollars to fund research of dubious value. The fact that Harvard isn’t paying for it already strongly implies that what these grants are funding is folly.
You're agreeing with someone who thinks Harvard gave itself 161 Nobel Prizes.Look, we're talking about Harvard and the Trump administration going after them because of their refusal to do anything about students that support Hamas.

Who cares about Nobel prizes? Arafat got one!You're agreeing with someone who thinks Harvard gave itself 161 Nobel Prizes.
Tangible? Join the 21st century. The survival rates of cancers are miles ahead of where they were just 20 years ago. The entire world has benefited from the cancer research conducted at major universities throughout the US.Of the two, manufacturing Barbie dolls is the only thing that has produced tangible results. There is no cure for cancer. The best humanity can do is improve on treatment to buy time.
As I said, focusing on treatment produces tangible results. Wasting time trying to find a “cure” doesn’t do anything. It’s unfortunate that people mistake remission for a “cure.” Treatment is about management and buying time. It is not a cure.Tangible? Join the 21st century. The survival rates of cancers are miles ahead of where they were just 20 years ago. The entire world has benefited from the cancer research conducted at major universities throughout the US.
Just one example:
Breast cancer mortality in the US declined between 1975 and 2019 from an age-adjusted rate of 48 deaths per 100,000 women to 27 deaths per 100,000 women. Advances in breast cancer treatment contributed to this decline. The overall 5-year relative survival rate for breast cancer is about 91%.
That's pretty ****ing tangible.
Though I minimize my interaction with the relentless, obvious trolls, I do appreciate when informed posters like yourself provide useful information with which to beat them over their heads. Keep up the good work.Tangible? Join the 21st century. The survival rates of cancers are miles ahead of where they were just 20 years ago.

Is anyone interested in wasting their time going down a rabbit hole of "cure vs remission?"As I said, focusing on treatment produces tangible results.

This is all about cutting off your nose to spite your face. So, so dumb. I'm guessing not grads of the best universities, or rather used to be, in the world. Small minded people doing small minded thingsIs anyone interested in wasting their time going down a rabbit hole of "cure vs remission?"
Wow.As I said, focusing on treatment produces tangible results. Wasting time trying to find a “cure” doesn’t do anything. It’s unfortunate that people mistake remission for a “cure.” Treatment is about management and buying time. It is not a cure.
